Answer:

1.43

Step-by-step explanation:

NOTE: This is the way I do it , other people may have a other/faster way to do it.

For this question you simpily have to divide 14.3 by 10:

1. Convert 14.3 into a mixed number - 14 3/10

2. Divide 14 by 10 - 1.4

3. Divide 3/10 by 10 - 3/100

4. Convert 3/100 into a decimal- 0.03

5. Add the two decimals - 0.03 + 1.4 = 1.43
